In this video, Chandler takes us through his 2 years experience with one EOTech's entry level holographic sight: The HWS 512. Does the reputation hold up? While it does have a few drawbacks, all those can be pretty easily lived with. All in, the EOTech 512 is simply a spectacular optic, and we would definitely recommend it.

Love my 512 , I know the whole lawsuit drama turned a lot of folks off to eotech but the post lawsuit models have been in my experience, really well executed. After getting spoiled with the big window eotech experience, it’s hard for me to go back to a standard tube red dot.

@RangeDay Год назад

That’s what I’m saying. I share the same thought.

@fujimi715 4 месяца назад

@RangeDay once you realize how much better Eotech is than a regular red dot, it's hard to switch back. I had to put eotechs on all my rifles.

I bought one last Christmas and love it. I also bought two Meprolight RDS Pro V2 red dot and love it. Both of them eat batteries but both are battle proven designs. I’m about to pick up another 512 for a budget beater rifle. I use rechargeable lithium batteries in them. It helps in the cost and I can just charge and swap out batteries whenever. Great video. Subscribing!

Let us know how well the rechargeable lithiums run! I haven’t ran rechargeable in it before!

@@RangeDay I’m taking care of my dad who is in the last stages of dementia. I’ve not been to the range yet. I’m checking the batteries ever three months. I left one on using them and it took a month and a half to drain. I am not sure it ever shut off. My Eotech 512 has them and I got three months out of them. They work good just got to stay on top of them and change and charge. I will get some regular lithium batteries for serious work but the rechargeable batteries work too.

I loaded more AA batteries in my 512 than I do loading 12g shells in my double barrel shotgun.

@RangeDay Год назад

It likes to eat them. That’s for sure.

Funny.....I haven't changed mine in a year & shoot often

@James-Johnson313 3 месяца назад

I thought the 512 could run for 2500 hours on one set of lithiums?

Can you put any 3x magnifier in front of it ?

@RangeDay 5 месяцев назад

Absolutely! I run a Holosun HM3X behind it sometimes.

Interesting. Your glasses have any filters on them?

What is holdover?

@RangeDay 9 месяцев назад

The short of it is, holdover is used to place your reticle above, or over, your target to factor in bullet drop at longer ranges than your zero. That way you are accounting for the effect of gravity on the bullet at longer distances. If you aim on target at a longer range than your zero, you may find you are hitting low, so the holdover (which varies at different distances) will counter act this. I’d recommend finding a video explanation with visuals to really get it down as this is just a simple explanation. I’d also recommend looking into height over bore for close ranges as well. Hope this helps!
